Validation of a novel partial resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta device in a swine hemorrhagic shock model: Fine tuning flow to optimize bleeding control and reperfusion injury

摘要

OBJECTIVES: Partial restoration of aortic flow during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is advocated by some to mitigate distal ischemia. Our laboratory has validated the mechanics and optimal partial REBOA (pREBOA) flow rates using a prototype device. We hypothesize that pREBOAwill increase survival when compared with full REBOA (fREBOA) in prolonged nonoperative management of hemorrhagic shock.
